But Paxton claimed in the press release that he was "extremely troubled by the allegations that Media Matters, a radical anti-free speech organization, fraudulently manipulated data on X.com" and wanted to "ensure that the public has not been deceived by the schemes of radical left-wing organizations who would like nothing more than to limit freedom by reducing participation in the public square."

How did they supposedly manipulate data on X? Did they hack into the servers? Modern republicans have no problem lying openly. They are nakedly corrupt.

Further down:

The problem with Paxton’s argument is that" it "ignores the body of law that prohibits government officials from subjecting individuals to retaliatory actions for exercising their rights of free speech," Edwards wrote, suggesting that Paxton arguably launched a "bad-faith" probe.

And no problem acting in bad faith. Every thing they say and do is in bad faith. There's no attempt to mask it at all anymore. I'm glad MMFA won and I hope they win the rest of the case and get a nice fat judgement. At taxpayer expense, of course, because their leadership in Texas wants to pick fights that violate the constitution they so pretend to love (like passing bills to put the ten commandments in schools; fucking asshole lunatics) and then getting their asses handed to them in court. No attempt to build infrastructure or enrich the lives of their constituents, just burning everything down.

Edit: a word.

I'm doing well. I have a good life. But holy shit, I'm so tired. The world is so terrible and I'm just fed up. I wish I could just check out and take a break, but it keeps going. Cheers.

It certainly wasn’t because the company is owned by a far-right South African billionaire at the same moment that the Trump admin is entertaining a plan to grant refugee status to white Afrikaners. /s

My partner is a real refugee. She was jailed for advocating democracy in her home country. She would have received a lengthy prison sentence after trial had she not escaped. This crap is bullshit. Btw, did you hear about the white-genocide happening in the USA? Sorry, I must have used Grok to write this. Go Elon! Cybertrucks are cool! Twitter isn’t a racist hellscape!

The stuff at the end was sarcasm, you dolt. Shut up.

We’re gonna be so fucked. Get ready for shittier experiences with internet providers and cell companies.
